Reuse DC solution from a specific corner in one test in the same corner of a different test

I think the prevoppoint option works also across different tests. in your stb analysis form, click on the Options button at the very bottom and select the prevoppoint checkbox. The stb analysis will then use the last saved operating point, i.e. the OP of the previous analysis (the order matters!). 

Thank you for the reply.  Would prevoppoint correctly deal with the corner-to-corner match?  I guess I can try and see what happens...

My understanding is that prevoppoint just uses the very last simulation run that stored a DC operating point of the circuit, regardless from where it comes. So no, you will not have a corner-to-corner match unless you run them one by one, i.e. the order has to be:
1. Corner A, Test1
2. Corner A, Test2
3. Corner B, Test1
4. Corner B, Test2
5. Corner C, Test1
6. Corner C, Test2

ADE Assembler has this feature called Run Plan. Maybe you can achieve the desired behaviour that way.

I have successfully used Run Plans, for example, in a Monte Carlo context, where I want to "factory trim" an MC trial and use a calculated trim code in subsequent Tests at different temperatures and supply voltages.  In that case, calcVal provides the necessary link.  It allows the Test, Run, and Corner each to be specified.  I need something similar to this calcVal functionality that can grab a specific DC solution.

A colleague just pointed me to this community post:

Something like this might work.

Use of prevoppoint will not work across corners or different tests. It's solely useful for a second analysis within the same invocation of Spectre.

The approach I suggested in the post you linked to will do what you want.
